It is hard to see why either of them is the measure of any
meaning. Man in the course of heavy universal history, would
likely be a flash in the pan, and God as a measure, has no
foundation. At best, man and God would both be some minor
fragment of some "OTHER" measure ...and at worst a nothing.
I need no evidence, but would accept your reasoning as to
how what I've said might be otherwise!
